Tales of Wizards and Dragons

Three hilarious short stories for young readers by Terry Pratchett (maybe age 6 - 8?)

Only 25 pages, 7000 words. So very short.

Reduced from £3.99 to 99p on Kobo https://www.kobo.com/gb/en/ebook/tal...ds-and-dragons The Kobo version is epub3 and allegedly reflowable.

Reduced to 86p on Amazon UK https://www.amazon.co.uk/Tales-Wizar.../dp/B0D2N2J55R

It's listed as full colour and 54 Mbyte on Amazon, so likely don't buy it for an actual Kindle, unless maybe a PW1 or older (K3 or newer) and you can "export" it. Any mono eink Kindle after the PW1 that does KFX will get mono content.

Kobo might or might not price match because it's a limited offer?

EDIT:
I think 6 - 8, based on my own experience of many kids, are better with a paper version. Also a paper version is easier to give as a present that can be read to the child.
